Reception
Reviews of Strangers to Ourselves represent a diverse mix of opinions on the album. While some lament the title's lack of experimentation and growth, other reviewers see the album as evidence of the band's evolution.

A rudderless 15-song set that slightly improves the standing of 2007's middle-of-the-moat We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank?

What’s ultimately missing are new ideas, or a fresh spin on their old ones.

"Strangers to Ourselves finds Modest Mouse moving forward in all sorts of directions."
